Is it possible to send certain foods through the mail? Ground USPS? FedEx? UPS? I have a friend who has helped me out a lot and all he wants in return is some good Illinois corn. I think he only lives a couple states away. Is this possible?

You can send it pretty much any way you want, but since it is fresh food, you'll need to protect it against bugs. For fresh corn, I'd recommend vacuum sealing it if you can. If not, a few well sealed food storage bags should work.

I live in California and regularly get shipments of live Maine lobster from family and friends. Don't ship any fresh food by USPS parcel post.

i once fed-exed two red peppers to my daughter in college because she loves them and they cost too much in NYC.
I also regularly send my older sister all kinds of specialty foods, including some cheeses and jellies and things in liquid—just wrap them GOOD. I mail them first class and they get there within three days normally.

Fresh corn you should fed-ex just so your friend can enjoy the freshness.

Be here now. Be someplace else later. Is that so complicated?
